Funding

Childcare Vouchers 

Childcare Vouchers are widely used by companies to help their employees with childcare costs. They are paid in-lieu of salary and administered by the employer. From 6th April 2006 Childcare Vouchers became tax and National Insurance exempt for up to £55 per week (£243 per month). This means that employees can receive the following annual savings on child care costs:

  • Up to £962 per annum for standard rate taxpayer*
  • up to £1196 for higher rate tax payer*

 *Accor

At Redbrook we accept all Child Care Vouchers including Busy Bees, Leapfrog, Accor and Sodexho.

Ask your employer for more details about Child Care Vouchers.

Early Years Entitlement

The Early Years scheme entitles children to up to 10 hours per week (2½ hours per day) per child nursery education funded by the Local Education Authority. To be eligible for funding, a child must attain his/her 3rd birthday between 1st September and 31st March*.

  • Children whose birthdays fall between 1st September and 31st December will be eligible for funding for both spring and summer terms (starting in January).
  • Children whose birthdays fall between 1st January and 31st March will be eligible for summer term only (starting after Easter).

Children having their birthday from 1st April and 31st August are not eligible for Early Years Entitlement.*

*NB: All dates are provisional and are subject to change. For example, summer term entitlement 2007 includes children with birthdays up to 14th April. Please check for latest information on eligible dates.
